Roads reopen after closing for broken gas line

Some streets in the Woodruff area of Spartanburg County were forced to shutdown Friday morning.

Employees at the Pizza Hut on Cross Anchor Road told News 4 there was a broken gas line behind the restaurant just before 11 a.m.

WYFF News 4 was told the gas line was repaired about 11:30 a.m. and all streets reopened.

Spartanburg County School District 4 superintendent Rallie Liston said students at Woodruff High School, Woodruff Middle School, Woodruff Elementary School and Woodruff Primary were "sheltering in place" while the line was repaired.

Sheltering in place means all students are kept inside and no one is allowed to leave or come inside.

Liston said two alerts were sent to parents about the situation.
